  • Log cabins and the Stall on campus

    The campus of the University of Twente offers accommodation in 9 log cabins, located near the sports facilities (7 log cabins for 12 students and 2 log cabins for 16 students).

    It is possible that you share a log cabin with a group of students from another academic year or study programme. We cannot guarantee separate women's and men's log cabins, but we will do our best to meet the preferences. A sheet package (pillow case and fitted sheet) is mandatory. These costs are included in the price of €22.50. You will need to bring your own sleeping bag/coverlet and towel. The heating in the cabins is provided only to keep the cabins frost-free in the winter.

    All bathroom facilities are housed in a separate building about 25 meters from the log cabins. You have to arrange your own breakfast. There is a supermarket nearby. It takes approximately 10 minutes to walk from the log cabin to campus building De Horst, where most of your lectures will be held.

    • Price per person per night: €22.50 

    • This price is including a sheet package for the whole stay. This price will be valid till 1 August 2025.

  • Hotels on and nearby campus

    There is a hotel on campus (U Parkhotel) and one across campus (Hotel De Broeierd). Feel free to make your own arrangements for these hotels. When booking a hotel, the regular hotel overnight costs must be paid directly to the hotel (so no intervention from the UT and no reduced rate). Note: if you book a room together with a fellow student, then your booking costs will be lower.

    The buildings, where you will take your practicals and tutorials, are a ten-minute walk from both hotels.
